Floater time again.

 

[lefty]

A floater, just when I'm heading off on vacation ! See you fellows in a week or so....

 

[fabulousfour]

Enjoy your vacation, Mike!

 

[fabulousfour]

This biplane is from a well known manufacturer that is still existant as a part of another company.

Martin TT

[fabulousfour]

Close enough to me, not the TT but the Martin S with Hall-Scott engine.
I think the radiators make the difference ?

Over to Chris.

 

[cthornburg]

The tail looks like a "T" version. The only pix I have of a "S" shows different tail.

This I don't know much about not even sure it flew looks like it's ready too. Has a generic name.

[cthornburg]

It's from Europe.

No takers. It's the Hollandsche Vliegtuigenfabriek AVIA the only info I found is in Wiki.

Hollandsche Vliegtuigenfabriek

Say that with a mouth full of crackers.




Moving along with a new one-

 

[giruXX]

The Grumman XF4F-3 in 1939 which was written off in a fatal accident on 16 December 1940.

 

[Moses03]

You got it Uli.

Over to Germany-

 

[giruXX]

Sorry for the delay, I had to search for a new mystery.

Here it comes, enjoy!

 

[fabulousfour]

That is the Utva/Cijan Troika, Uli.

 

[giruXX]

yes of course

Utva 251 BC 3-Trojka

 

[fabulousfour]

Back to biplanes again.

 

[Moses03]

Captured Saiman 200 used as a misc runabout. Little suspicious when the marking is left intact.

 

[fabulousfour]

It is the Saiman 200.

Hoped that I could confuse you folks for some seconds.

Over to Kevin.

 

[pomme homme]

Whilst waiting for Kevin's next offering, might I use this opportunity to tap into the resident expertise on this forum? On another forum members are agonising over the identity of the aeroplane in the hangar, behind the Farman Goliath floatplane, in the attached photograph. The consensus is that it appears to be the Farman F.171 F-AIGE but there are aspects of it which militate against that - not least that it appears to have a single 'slab' float, the inboard strut arrangement is wrong, the lower sesquiplane is missing (or has it been detached and is the apparent 'slab' float?), it has a single two bladed prop (rather than a pair of these mounted in tandem) and there are no windows on the port side of the fuselage. Also attached is another photograph showing the hangar aeroplane in greater detail. Any ideas, anyone?
